Infect deck, built around Fynn, the Fangbearer . Each time a creature with deathtouch deals combat damage to an opponent, they get poison counters.

As I would like to build these decks in real life, I try to keep them budget friendly. General rule of thumb is to stick to cards in the $0 - $2 range, with a handful of cards up to $5. (Occasionally a more expensive card pops up, simply because I already happen to have it in my physical collection or if it's really needed to make the deck work).

Strategies

Main strat Lots of creatures with deathtouch. We need to deal combat damage to a players face for Fynn's ability to be activated, so we will need ways to get around blockers.

Getting damage through Making our own creatures unblockable with artifacts or destroying opponent's creatures with instants and sorceries. Additionally, Hornet Queen and Hornet Nest are always good to put out flyers with deathtouch. (Band Together + Hornet Nest for lot's of them).

Proliferate Once opponents have poison counters, proliferate is a great way to give them more: Evolution Sage , Core Prowler , Courage in Crisis , Planewide Celebration .

Finishers Planewide Celebration can be used to proliferate 4 times to finish an opponent off with poison counters. - Squall Line can deal a lot of regular damage to a life total if enough mana is available. Band Together + Hornet Nest can make lot's of flyers with deathtouch to swing in for the win.

Improvements

Removed

Suggested: Out: Blight Mamba , Cystbearer , Glistener Elf , Viridian Betrayers . In: Moss Viper , Wasteland Viper , Oakhame Adversary .

Notes and Rules Information for Fynn, the Fangbearer

source: gatherer.wizards.com

Losing the game because a player (preferably an opponent) has ten or more poison counters is a rule of the game. Fynn doesn’t have to still be on the battlefield when someone (preferably an opponent) gets their tenth poison counter. (2021-02-05)
